An Incident wien a moral.

An Incident with a Moral.
The advance along the line in the last
twenty years of the temperance warfare
lie simply amazing. The enemy is
strongly entrenohed and grows more de-.
termined the harder he is pushed, but
eve was this siege more vigorously
pushed than to-day; never were the
forces more wisely handled; never were
the lines more tightly drawn. For many
years there have been societies in order
to throw guards of safety around the
drunkard and to rescue those that drink.
They have done their work grandly and,
are doing it still. but there is one thing
the temperance people must look after,
that is the children that are growing up.
Those bright little fellows, how pure
and innocent they arel remember one
time when / was a little girl, my parents
were invited to a wedding party, and as
the custom Yves in those days, they had
wine FOR dinner. After the guests had
left the table little Johnnie four hosts

you SICK" "No it ont, tause papa and
Misser Dewey din&s it." When his
mother heard Of what he was dong she
laughed, and thought it cute, but in
after years she had reason to weep. Oh,
mothers! take good care of the little
Johnnies. Teach them while they are
young to ioa.he, to despise the miser.

Oranges, delicious, and in these
times so cheap, are excellent for table
use, either alone, or for an ineXpen-
sive delicscy combined with apples.
A recipe comes to us for using them
by themselves, which looks like a
good one to follow. Two dozen, cut
up in bowl, removing the seeds,
with two large peeled lemons, to
which is added seven quarts ofwater,
stirred and set away over night. The
next day have them gradually come
to a boil, then allow to simmer till
the peel is tender, when add fourteen
pounds Of granulated sugar. Boil
now till it is transparent and jellies if
cooled. Keep in small cans, within
the covers of which first place tissue

malade may be kept long time if
visitors are not too frequent about tea

Personal Points and Pithy Paragraphs
From North Warren.

Frosty nights and windy, sunshiny
days-a good time to prepare the land
and get everything ready for corn
planting. 1.-THE weather remains dry
want to plant some by the last of
the present week. hardly ever fail
to get good stand when l plant early.
My method is to prepare the land
well and plant from 3 to5 grains to
the hill and cover very light. know
some farmers who have good farms
who have scarcely made a commence
ment for crop. Fences all out of
order and hardly furrow made.
These kind of farmers are always cry
ing out high taxes and hard times and
no market. No wonder they seldom
have anything to sell and if they do
it is generally when there is no local
demand. / know that our lands are
not so rich as the lands in many
counties of our state, but we have
many other advantages that people
do not have where the lands are rich
er. We have generally regular sea-
sons, fruits and vegetables of all kinds
do well, and there is nothing to him
der the industrious, wide-awake farm
er from doing well. The man who
has pleasant little home which is
paid for, and is out Of debt, otherwise
enjoys more of real life than the man
with his thousands. Riches some
times bring but little happiness and
enjoyment. | can we'll remember
when ! owned a very small farm, and
it rather poor, and not entirely paid
for, that those were my happiest
days. 1t is true / looked forward to
the time when | could accumulate
something above II living, and in
spired with this thought my work,
instead of being irksOme, was only
pleasure. In my younger days |
made it point to keep out of debt.
The success Of our farmers doesn't
only depend upon their industry and
frugality; but to a great extent upon
their punctuality. Never make
promise that you do not intend to
perform. Promise just what you can
perform, and it will give you charac-
ter that no oneneed to be ashamed of.
AS the farmers and working men of
our country are the bone and sinue
of prosperity long to see the time
when they will interest themselves
with their calling, for be sure it is a
high and noble one.

lady near Gath, is visiting Dibrell to-
